Narrows down the versions of TypeScript we need to support.
BREAKING CHANGE:
* TypeScript versions less than 5.8 are no longer supported.
PR Close#60197
Updates the repo to support TypeScript 5.3 and resolve any issues. Fixes include:
* Updating usages of TS compiler APIs to match their new signatures.
* In TS 5.3 negative numbers are represented as `PrefixUnaryExpression` instead of `NumericExpression`. These changes update all usages to account for it since passing a negative number into the old APIs results in a runtime error.

This commit removes the NGCC code and all the related infra setup required to support it.
BREAKING CHANGE: Angular Compatibility Compiler (ngcc) has been removed and as a result Angular View Engine libraries will no longer work
PR Close#49101
Similar to how the `@babel/core` dependency is managed for the localize
NPM package, the version should be locked. Also the version should
correspond to the version we install for building & testing.
Currently the Babel version allowed by the compiler-cli may not
work given the ESM -> CJS interop. causing errors like:
```
import { types as t } from "@babel/core";
^^^^^
SyntaxError: Named export 'types' not found. The requested module '@babel/core' is a CommonJS module, which may not support all module.exports as named exports.
CommonJS modules can always be imported via the default export, for example using:
import pkg from '@babel/core';
const { types: t } = pkg;
```
We can only be confident about the interop if we know the version
installed- is the one we test.

This change aligns with the supported Node.js versions of the Angular CLI.
See: https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/pull/24026
BREAKING CHANGE: Angular no longer supports Node.js versions `14.[15-19].x` and `16.[10-12].x`. Current supported versions of Node.js are `14.20.x`, `16.13.x` and `18.10.x`.
PR Close#47730
Updates the version range in the compiler to require at least TypeScript 4.8. Note that I'm keeping the backwards-compatibility layer for 4.7 around for now until internal projects have been migrated to 4.8.
BREAKING CHANGE:
TypeScript versions older than 4.8 are no longer supported.
PR Close#47690
Adds support for TypeScript 4.8 and resolves some issues that came up as a result of the update.
Most of the issues came from some changes in TypeScript where the `decorators` and `modifiers` properties were removed from most node types, and were combined into a single `modifiers` array. Since we need to continue supporting TS 4.6 and 4.7 until v15, I ended up creating a new `ngtsc/ts_compatibility` directory to make it easier to reuse the new backwards-compatible code.
